Is there a secret behind Crutchfield's success or its reputation for great service?
Not really. Happy employees make for happy customers.

It's that simple.

We value creativity and personality

Creative people drive the innovations that separate us from our competition. Friendly,
upbeat, respectful people help us form strong and lasting connections with our customers.
And they make Crutchfield a fun place to work.

If you follow the Charlottesville music scene, you know that Crutchfield employs
a lot of great musicians. Ever wonder why? It’s because we look for creativity and
passion in our workforce.

We reward great performance

Top performers get the best pay and the promotions. All full-time employees are
on an incentive pay plan, in addition to their competitive base pay and attractive
benefits package. Most of our leaders have been promoted from within. Anybody with
good ideas and the drive to make them happen can be a hero.

Your manager will help you meet your goals, but will not breathe down your neck

Some departments offer flexible scheduling

Why you'll feel good about working here

People take pride in working for a company that's fueled by values. When they know
they are respected by their colleagues, they can focus on the important stuff. When
they feel good about their work life, they tend to stick around. And companies with
low employee turnover serve their customers better.

Crutchfield is committed to providing physical activity and wellness opportunities
for our employees. Crutchfield is recognized as a 2007 Gold Level Recipient of the
American Heart Association's Start! Fit-Friendly Companies Recognition program.

Crutchfield is a privately owned company. Unlike many public companies, we are never
forced to compromise our values for short-term benefit. Our incentive compensation
is partly based on performance relative to our core values.

"I loved working with customers, always went the extra mile. I got a charge
when they said to me, 'Wow, nobody at these other stores has been able to help me
like you have.' I heard that a lot from my customers."
